Interesting. Does this rank actual production or does it include reserves? Because I would have thought that oil would be something the U.S. also has quite a lot of
I assume these are estimated reserves.

Either way, the US has lots of oil.

I also found it strange that it didn't appear on the graph. Is it because it's smaller than the others? (Coal, timber, natural gas, gold, copper)
reply
Without looking into the actual numbers, it strikes me as utterly implausible that US oil is less valuable than copper, gold, or timber. I also doubt it's lower than natural gas or coal, but that might depend on how they're counting reserves.
